go out and touch grass this weekend

Happy Friday. Markets dipped but I remain optimistic about where the future of finance is headed. The past few days felt a lot like early 2021 again: risk on, active bidding, and back‑to‑back launches across Base, Binance, and beyond. People are already speculating on MetaMask, OpenSea, and Base token. Wen Farcaster token? We will see.
